fandandy 3,311 Posted January 17, 2019 If 8 men working 9 hours a day can build a wall 18 meters long, 2 meters wide and 12 meters high in 10 days, how many men will be required to build a wall 32 meters long, 3 meters wide and 9 meters high by working 6 hours a day in 8 days?

sderk 1,040 Posted January 17, 2019 I gave myself 2 minutes to think on this. I'm guessing 30. It took 720 hours to make the first wall. The second wall would take 1440 hours under that scenario. 8*6*x=1440 If it's wrong, oh well, been a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was going to try and do the problem while I was exporting some work...but no, someone walked and had me fix their work...WTF...don't these people know I have GC business to attend to.
